Comcrap Service

The only thing that will force lousy companies to shape up is serious competition. Until they know that their customers have alternatives and don't have to put up with terrible service, they will drag their feet. The good news is that some of the dsl companies are making inprovements in speed.
I live between Atlanta and Athens (kinda rural area) and my comcast internet goes out every time the wind blows. It's crazy, but I switched my cable to DirecTV, and have an infinitely better signal through the dish than I had through cable. My phone has been VoIP with Packet 8 for years now, but it still relies on Comcasts' signal for it's source. When Comcast craps out, my internet and phone go out.

Totally agreed- they simply have no competition. Where I live I'm not allowed to use a dish so I'm stuck with Comcast for worse or for worse.

As far as internet goes, I'd consider DSL - but like you my phone line is VoIP (I run a VoIP company, actually and I doubt I could get dry loop DSL over here - not to mention their speeds are too slow.
